Cornhusker pride!

We FINALLY have a blog!  We are so official now!  It has taken us a while to get this up and running, but hopefully it'll be something that I can keep pretty updated so that all of you can be filled in on our exciting adventures in Nebraska.
Now since I know that Lincoln, Nebraska is not everyone's top places to visit I will fill you in on some of the interesting things I've been able to experience first hand here.  First of all I had no idea what rain really was until I moved here.  When it rains in the midwest it REALLY RAINS!  It is like driving through a swimming pool!  There are bucket loads of water coming down and then there is tons of water on the road.  It's pretty ridiculous actually.  I was sure I was going to die on our drive to move here during a nasty rain storm and I don't think I have ever been that scared in my life before.   Now at least I know not to expect a few sprinkles when the forecast predicts rain.  
Another thing I've noticed about living here is that these people have more pride in their football team than anywhere else I have ever been.  You can't go to the store without seeing at least two people on every isle wearing Nebraska Cornhusker t-shirts, and on game day everyone...I mean pretty much everyone has a red Nebraska shirt on!  So was starting to feel like a sore thumb without one so I broke down and bought red cornhusker t-shirts for me and Chad.  Now we will fit right in!  We are started to get settled and feel at home here in our little one bedroom apartment.  I promise to post pictures soon!
